  • After getting reamed for saying Indian Ed Davis and asked to remove the derogatory Indian (?) from the title.
    I discovered this story online about the importance and almost unknown fact that Jesse Ed Davis was a "red" man and needs the attention of that fact to others of the same skin color.
    I've added the link below for you to read.
    In no way was this a derogatory remark.
    This was a beautiful full blooded Indian on the rock scene. A man that taught so many great players.
    I'm sorry that I let the woman go who was so offended.
    But I think she's completely wrong. I think today Ed Davis would not have been so personally offended, that calling him Indian Ed was no slight on this man in any way.
    Apparently this Indian in the article below would have lived to have known this.
    Check it out.

    I was just 14 when Layla and Other Assorted Love Song and All Thing Must Pass were released. All we had were album notes so we just saw names like Bobby Whitlock, Carl Radle, Billy Preston et al.We had no google or internet.....these stories fill in the gaps

      True , no google , but we knew who the players were . besides the music since not having players worth following , the cd covers were so small , sometimes it was hard to find the players names . Worse with memory sticks ,streaming and bluetooth there are no covers at all , without punching in to find out the names of players .so i find the fans since then are not as tuned into who the players are , and therefore dont discover the great ones , like those Dominoes . But ya ,to your point it is great hearing from someone who was there . . . real cool .

    Back in ‘79, I was playing with a group in Oahu, Hawaii club and one night a guy comes up in between tunes asking if he could jam. I was the keyboardist and of course, set up off to the side and could hold a conversation without distraction - and immediately recognized the man as Jesse Ed Davis. I forgot what tune we jammed on but we struck a friendship ( being Yaqui myself, we could relate as Native Americans) and he brought up the idea of continuing to get together in a group form. I was heading back to LA eventually so I never pursued it.
    Years later, when I heard he’d passed away, it made me kind of sad. He was a very nice, humble gentleman. You would never think that someone so meek and gentle (he was a big guy physically) had been in company of some of the greatest names in music.

      That's pitiful. Now in 2023 in America, our brown people and people of color who were here before Europeans, call themselves American Indians. The term native American could apply to someone born here that's blue or green. People Like Jesse Edwin Davis are PROUD of their Indian heritage. Also American Indians laid the foundation for much of 'American'' culture. As a music lover, you must watch 'Rumble' the great music movie featuring what American Indian musicians like Link Wray ('Rumble' is his song; it was BANNED from radio yet it was an instrumental???? Because they didn't like the title. Maybe too much West Side Story in the American consciousness?), Jesse Ed Davis, Jimi Hendrix, Buffy St. Marie and lots more people of American Indian descendance, touching all sorts/disciplines/catagories of medicine, did and contributed. I think Rumble is the MOST Important and BEST Music movie of the 21st century. And while we're at it, looks like, despite all the propaganda over four centuries, most brown people in America were NOT brought over from Africa as slaves. Most brown people were HERE, from HERE, as my wife's aunt informed her when she asked growing up in Georgia around Cherokee territory. That was what Martin Luther King was trying to reveal before the powers-that-be decided to snuff him out. Check other references on this to catch up with reality, such as the outrageous but extensively researching Dane Calloway about this subject. Bobby Whitlock here reveals that before Duane Allman, there was Jesse Edwin Davis, who taught him a few things on guitar. Also featured about Jesse Ed Davis was how he got into playing the iconic guitar solo you hear in your grocery stores and medical offices: 'Doctor My Eyes'written by Jackson Browne. Great story of how that occurred in Rumble, Jackson Browne explaining . . . Of course, most famously knowing who he was, he was the guitarist with Taj Mahal on his first albums. Yes, Jesse was the guitarist with all those riffs and rhythms you hear with Taj!

      I was sitting in a Boulder Colorado jail cell for being seen buying a bag of weed lol the week JJ's first album (Naturally) was released and the local station played the record . I heard the first song they played "call Me a Doctor and fell off my chair. I had just heard what I'd been missing all my 21 years on earth at the time. I knew immediately this was gonna be an artist with no equal and I couldnt wait to get my ass to the music store. Within 4or5 days I was playing his record OVER AND OVER.AND OVER. Other than his fellow Okie musician friends I might have been his 1st( or damn close to it) fanatical paying fan lol. I mean this guy strummed and picked my soul and wrote and sang my inner being. Its been about 50 yrs now and no one else has even came close. Anyway I just love to hear when someone else was blessed with the ears and taste to know what a real music talent sounds like. Think of all the major artists that consider him a major influence and hes not even in the Hall of Fame . You think he gave a rats ass? nah!!!!!

Another quick question, I'm curious if you ever heard of The Cate Brothers Band. I ask because Steve Cropper produced one of their albums in the 70's (In One Eye & Out The Other) I think was it. They also toured as The Band with Levon Helm in the early 80's. Levon's nephew (Terry Cagle) is The Cate Brothers drummer. Anyway, y'all keep talking and we'll keep listening! Y'all be well.

    Eric Singing without Bobby in the mix on the Layla LP .I remember listening to the album when it first came out thinking well Eric is singing so much stronger Without realizing that the voice I was hearing was actually Bobby Whitlock .

    Of all these great stories, getting a sneak peak into JJ Cale was so interesting. It’s good to know that your hero’s are how you imagine. Meeting John Hartford was one of my musical highlights. Never got to hear you live but spent an hour or two (a lifetime) of hearing you. Thank you for all your memories. I grew up on your music as the soundtrack of my life.

    I love listening to you reminisce, Bobby! Delaney, Bonnie and Friends was the band I saw more then any other right out of my high school daze! And, there was a time when I actually lived in that apartment complex right across the street from Snoopy's Opera House in North Hollywood . . . Regrettably, I was too young to get in there. A' the best!

    I really enjoy listening to yalls podcast..I was playing on a documentary as it was being flimed in Tulsa & Clairemore OK in 1990 & we set up in a bar & playing for tips out of boredom..So were in Tulsa & this dude was coming on after us & i had no idea what JJ Cale looked like..So this dude walks up to us after our little show & asked if we would be interested in setting in with him & we said sure if we can keep up we'd be glad to..We still had no idea who he was but we listened to a couple of songs & jumped right on stage & ( winged it) starde playing as best we could..After the show he introduced himself as JJ Cale & we about fell over LOL..He was the nicest cat i ever met & we ended up playing about six weeks with him..Stayed in touch for several years with him but life gets in the way & we lost touch with him..But what an honor it was to play with one of the greatest songwriters of all time..A true gentleman he was RIP JJ.

    J.J. is the gold standard to me for so many things, but just as a guitarist alone he represents the peak of what I’ve always wanted to achieve as a guitar player myself. I’m 48 and my parents brought me up listening to great music, including of course Cream, Hendrix, ‘All Things Must Pass’, ‘Layla’ etc, and J.J.’s ‘Naturally’ and ‘5’ really hit me like a ton of bricks. For me, J.J.’s economy and emotional impact are the high watermark, dare I say over and above B.B. King who I think might be second to J.J. in that regard. I just want to be reaching somewhere near that level of brevity and emotional content, completely devoid of bullshit...just direct from his heart to the listener’s heart in the context of his GREAT songs. The playing was PERFECT in those songs. God, I just love and admire J.J. with all my heart.

Learned a lot more about this stuff, through Him. Did you know anything about the time when Ed Davis worked with Gene Clark ? Regards, JT
